the potential weak point is the suspension/handling, which is why the words "Viggen" and Rescue Kit" tend to turn up in the same sentence. Think they had 225 bhp with no traction control in 1999. But I'll bet it's a lot of fun when properly sorted and there must be plenty of info here about how to do that. Maybe add a LSD as well?
Will get beaten over the head for mentioning this but, as I discovered when sitting in my dentist's waiting room, a couple of months ago Octane Magazine rated the 9-3 Viggen Convertible one of the 10 worst cars they had ever tested over the years, and that was down to lack of body stiffness with the ragtop shell.
